Things are happening...

If you want to find out what is happening in the world of book arts then your first stop should be to download the latest copy of the Book Arts Newsletter - Issue 97 includes articles, events, exhibitions and events around the globe and can be found at at http://www.bookarts.uwe.ac.uk/banlists.htm

If you are visiting Melbourne for the Fair then make sure that you drop in and see the exhibition Inspiration by Design: Word and Image from teh Victoria and Albert Museum at the State Library of Victoria and also see the John Wolseley exhibition at the NGV Australia in Federation Square.Here are some articles about those shows:

Artspace in Sydney has also announced that it is getting into the artist book fair act with its new Volume 2015 project which is described as 'Australia's first independent art book fair' and is calling for applications from potential exhibitors - you can find out more at http://www.volumeartbookfair.com/

Finally I just wanted to let you know about this little blog entry by Gracia and Louise about their cover art on our most recent issue of the LaTrobe Journal which focussed on artists' books.

The exhibition presents two connected bodies of material: a survey of artists’ books by Australian painter, sculptor and bookmaker Robert Jacks (1942-2014), and an extensive selection of publications drawn from Jacks’ own collection, many of which were purchased from Printed Matter in the early years of the organization.
